Armstrong® Ceiling Solutions Names Blue Goblin a Certified Construction & Demolition Processor

Lancaster, Pa. — Armstrong® Ceiling Solutions, the nation’s largest manufacturer of acoustical ceiling systems, has named Atlanta-based Blue Goblin an Armstrong Certified Construction & Demolition (C&D) Processor.

As an Armstrong C&D Processor, Blue Goblin will collect used ceiling panels that have been removed from commercial construction, renovation and demolition sites throughout the Atlanta area. The company will then process the ceilings and prepare them for shipment to an Armstrong plant where they will be used in the manufacture of new ceilings in a closed-loop process. Armstrong designates new panels made with high levels of recycled ceilings as Ceiling-2-Ceiling™ panels.
 

Blue Goblin in now an integral part of the Armstrong Ceiling Recycling Program. The program, which is the first and longest-running program of its kind, enables commercial building owners and contractors to send using ceilings from renovation and demolition projects to the nearest Armstrong ceiling plant as an alternative to landfill disposal.

Established in 2014, Blue Goblin provides customized recycling solutions and support to demolition and renovation projects throughout the Atlanta area.

Since it began the program in 1999, Armstrong has recycled more than 195 million square feet of used ceiling panels globally, preventing more than 97,500 tons of construction waste from being deposited in landfills throughout the world. Ceiling recycling can also help building owners and contractors save money on container costs and landfill fees and can contribute to the new LEED® v4 credits for the Construction Waste Management (CWM) prerequisite for a CWM plan and toward the CWM credit for diverting up to four different material streams on a project.
